00:16Субтитры сделал Dwayne
00:30McCain
00:40Third team foul on Detroit
00:43And Derek McCain
00:46Written earlier this season
00:48From Philadelphia will work it in
00:52Mitchell
00:53Have an outstanding second year
00:55Has to dive on a loose ball
00:57And timeout is called
00:59By Mark Dagnall
01:02With 4-10 to go
01:04In this second quarter
01:08Look at the defense right here
01:09The competitiveness
01:10This is what they do
01:11Grit and grind
01:12Pistons basketball
01:16Speaks one-on-one
01:17With Austin Rivers
01:18In the latest episode
01:19Of Eye for the Game
01:21It's BD at his best
01:22Telling stories
01:23And breaking down
01:24On the Game of Basketball
01:25Watch now
01:26On the NBA
01:28On NBC YouTube channel
01:30Six seconds on the shot clock
01:32For the Thunder
01:33Dort on the move
01:35Fading away
01:36Dort is going
01:37He had to make a play
01:39That shot clock winding down
01:40Pretty well defended
01:41By Detroit
01:42But that step back
01:43Great space
01:44And Dort just drills it
01:46That's the one
01:46You're just going to live with
01:47Right
01:47I mean
01:47You ran him off the three
01:49He's out of his comfort zone
01:50He doesn't shoot a lot of two
01:53Outside look won't go
01:54From Devontae Green
01:56Outside
01:57Lanier
01:58Flicks the wrist
01:59That won't drop
02:00And Holger in the board
02:02That was a nice little pass
02:03A slingshot
02:06Before that last door jumper
02:07Chet and SGA had all
02:10Of OKC's points
02:12In the second quarter
02:13They lead by eight
02:15Mitchell on the drive
02:16It won't go
02:17And rebound secured by Green
02:23Toluse Smith
02:24Nearly lost
02:25It now recovers
02:27I thought he picked up
02:28The pivot
02:29He might have got away
02:30With one there
02:33Shot clock winding down
02:34Sasser got some space
02:37Sasser can't hit
02:38The long ring
02:39That's tough
02:40She don't check
02:40How good was that
02:41By Chet
02:42He contained the bounce
02:43Get out there
02:43And contest
02:47OKC
02:47Trying to get back up
02:48By double digits
02:49Williams trying again
02:51From distance
02:52No
02:53This is doing a great job
02:55Closing out
02:55They're climbing
02:59This is Thompson
03:01Off the heel
03:02Williams another boy
03:06They will with five rebounds
03:08An 0 for 4 from the floor
03:13Mitchell
03:15Muffling inside
03:17Got it to go
03:19He just willed that one
03:21I mean that was perfectly defended by a star
03:24You cannot do it any better off the ball screen than that
03:29Besser out to Devontae Green
03:32High arcing three won't go
03:33Dort saves it to Green
03:36Flicks the wrist
03:37And hits
03:38That's a play where Dort has just got to eat the turnover
03:41You save that thing under your own basket
03:43You're just giving points away
03:45You're just giving points away
03:46You're just giving points away
03:49You're just giving points away
03:51Now about Green not being gunshot
03:53Mitchell
03:54No
03:55Couple of taps
03:56Out of bounds
03:57It will stay with the Thunder
03:59No off to Javante Green
04:01Is in a really good stretch of shooting the basketball
04:04So I'm not surprised that as soon as he caught that
04:07He was looking to let it fly
04:12He even had a little fade in the corner
04:14He's feeling good
04:16He's a double figure
04:18Leaving away for Detroit with 10 points
04:22Knocked down a couple of triples
04:24Seven point ball game
04:28Second and final meeting
04:29Between these two teams
04:31Who both sit at the top
04:33Of their respective conference
04:34S.J. got caught in the air
04:36Finds Wallace
04:37Rip it out
04:38On the three
04:49Collins surveying the floor
04:53Collins on the drive
04:55Blocked by Holmgren
04:58And Ron Holland is a super athlete
05:00But you're going up against the second best shot blocker in the NBA
05:05S.J. crossed over
05:07Fouled on the floor
05:09Fourth team foul on Detroit
05:11You're worried about that step back too
05:13But he's got the step back and go
05:16There's Holmgren just pancaking that thing to the logo
05:21First and last two minutes
05:24First and last two minutes
05:25Against most
05:26That's a great move
05:28Against him
05:28Against him
05:28Good luck finishing
05:31You see tied for second
05:34In the league
05:34And blocks per game
05:38Exactly a minute to go
05:39In the first half
05:42Mitchell
05:44Penetrating
05:44Mitchell
05:45Goal
05:46But just such a strong take
05:48And using that off arm
05:49Just enough to fend off Jenkins
05:51On a play by A.J. Mitchell to get to that strong left
05:54He's in double figures now
05:56Lanier can't hit
05:57Holmgren
05:58The rebound
05:59His fifth of the ball game
06:02We mentioned
06:03Who's out for Detroit
06:05OKC playing without
06:06Daly Williams
06:07And Isaiah Hardenstein
06:09And his SGA fouled
06:11Once again
06:13See it's a
06:14Right there
06:15You know what I'm saying Robbie
06:16Like that's a skill
06:17To see
06:18Where the defense is at
06:19How to put your body in a position
06:21To get to the line
06:23I know he seeks it
06:24They call it a merchant
06:25But if it's that easy
06:26Everyone could do it
06:27Yeah
06:27And you look at just the
06:29The way that he's kind of grown into that too
06:31You know
06:32Like it is a skill that's acquired
06:34And think about what that builds in for you
06:36When you're not shooting well
06:37And he hasn't shot it great the last two games
06:40Only 38 from the field
06:41Actually 7% 3
06:43But he got to the line 28 times over that stretch
06:46And the scoring just keeps coming
06:49Coming up
06:50American Express at the half
06:52He sent it to the studio
06:53Ahmed Fareed
06:54Evan Turner
06:55And special guest
06:57John's karate in studio
06:58Will break down tonight's action
07:00In the first half of this one
07:01Ten point advantage right now
07:03For the Thunder
07:10He's going to be the one
07:11Full head of steam
07:11Toss out
07:12Harris LeVert was out of bounds
07:15That passed by Jenkins
07:16It's the right read Austin
07:18But it's off target
07:19It's got to be in the shot pocket there
07:21He did his job
07:23He engaged
07:24Two

08:25СГА leading all scores
08:27with 16 points
08:29and the Thunder
08:30lead after 2
08:32by 10
08:3353-43
08:35as we send it to the studio
08:36to Ahmed Pariz
08:38Thank you, Michael. Coming up on American Express
08:41at the half, Ahmed with John Crotty
08:42and Evan Turner. Despite that miss shot
08:44an MVP first half for SGA
08:46but was it better than Victor
08:48Wembenyama today?
08:51Don't answer yet! Don't answer!
08:53We'll find out at the half
08:59Time now for Inside the Game
09:02powered by AWS
09:04we are looking at
09:06gravity
09:07NBA definition from the glossary
09:09average defensive pressure
09:11drawn by the player
09:13above expected
09:14in all
09:15situations
09:17and so you can imagine
09:18SGA
09:19high on this list
09:21this is from last night
09:22OKC's win
09:23over the Knicks
09:24SGA's one
09:25crowd
09:25setting up
09:26J. Will
09:27for the tray
09:28and here are the league leaders
09:30they've
09:30they've
09:30quantified this
09:31and your league leaders
09:32KD at the top
09:33Anthony Edwards
09:34second
09:36SGA's third
09:37followed by Lukas
09:38and Kawhi Leonard
09:41just think of these guys
09:43as a magnet
09:43for defensive attention
09:46and
09:46Robbie Hummel
09:47who's patrolling the sidelines
09:49for the Thunder tonight
09:49no surprise
09:50SGA high on that list
09:51no it's really not
09:52I mean you think about
09:53his usage rate
09:54top five in the league
09:55his ability to get to the lane
09:57and draw help
09:57his ability to score
09:58it makes sense
10:00why that would be
10:01at the top there
10:02SGA obviously
10:02one of the best players
10:03in the NBA
10:04and it's no surprise
10:05that he's going to draw
10:05a lot of attention
10:06Robbie you called this
10:07a maturity game
10:08for the Thunder
10:08playing against
10:09a Pistons team
10:10that's so
10:11shorthanded
10:12what did they like
10:12out of the first 24
10:13well just in walking out
10:15and talking to Mark Dagnall
10:16here coming out of the half
10:17he said obviously
10:18the rebounding
10:19needs to be cleaned up
10:20and part of that
10:21is going small
10:21not having Isaiah
10:22Hartenstein
10:23and playing Chet Hongren
10:24at the five
10:25but really
10:25he was more concerned
10:26about the offense
10:27getting a little bit
10:28sticky there
10:28late in the second quarter
10:30says we need to move
10:30the ball
10:31need to move it
10:31from side to side
10:32we'll see if that
10:33offense adjusts
10:34here in the third quarter
10:35Paul Reed
10:35with the lay
10:36Austin Rivers
10:37patrolling the sidelines
10:38and sitting on the bench
10:40for the Pistons
10:41they have to feel good
10:42being within striking distance
10:44absolutely
10:44you've got to
10:45consider all the easy shots
10:47that they didn't get
10:48the ball
10:49layups
10:50couple easy threes
10:51all they got to do
10:52is just continue
10:52to hang around
10:53spring stops
10:55get as many paint touches
10:56as possible
10:57and try to free up
10:58good through corners
11:01they're going to count the basket
11:03by Kevin Herter
11:04a three-point play opportunity
11:06and a nice burst
11:08to start the third quarter
11:09by Detroit
11:10playing tonight
11:11without their top
11:12five scores
11:14great strength there
11:17by Herter
11:17a little football cradle
11:18as he gets through
11:20and able to just
11:20balance off that one foot
11:22keep his eye on the glass
11:25he's a guy that can help
11:26a little scoring outburst
11:28from him could go a long way
11:29in a game like tonight
11:31after he was traded
11:32from Chicago
11:33he wasn't getting a lot
11:34of minutes early on
11:35but maybe Bickerstaff
11:36told him to be patient
11:37and I knew that March
11:38would be a very busy month
11:40month for his squad
11:41and he would get more
11:43opportunities and Herter
11:44has taken advantage
11:45yes he is
11:46and he can help them
11:46especially with spacing
11:47the floor
11:48J.B. Bickerstaff
11:49kind of alluded
11:50to that today
11:51and shoot around
11:52just talked about
11:53how he can be
11:54a huge help
11:54come playoff time
11:55when that ball sticks
11:56and everyone's
11:57honed in on stopping
11:58Cade or some of these
11:59other guys
12:00he's going to be
12:00out there with Duncan
12:02spreading the floor
12:03J.B. Gildas Alexander
12:05can't hit
12:05got it back
12:06off the good hands
12:08by A.J. Mitchell
12:09he's had some
12:10mid-range jumpers
12:11you can see his
12:12frustration visibly
12:13he's had some shots
12:14tonight that he
12:15normally knocks down
12:17got a little short
12:18could be due to that
12:19back to back
12:20he's found four
12:21for ten
12:23keeping an eye on
12:24that average
12:2530
12:25shoot 55%
12:27from the floor

12:38you're right
12:39Robbie
12:39he is shooting
12:40he didn't even
12:40bring that ball
12:41down
12:41that was almost
12:42a no dip three
12:43big time three
12:44there for green
12:46maybe the common
12:47basketball fan
12:48realizes how hard
12:49that shot is
12:50to just catch that
12:51at the chin
12:52and go straight up
12:53with it
12:53you have an easy
12:54look
12:55great job there
12:56by Harder
12:56he's someone that
12:57gets targeted
12:58on defense
12:58but tonight
12:59he's been sliding
12:59his feet
13:00you see it right
13:00here
13:01that's good
13:01deep
13:03and bodies
13:04hit the deck
13:07as Mitchell
13:09draws the foul
13:12see it right there
13:13and it starts
13:14with the drive
13:14Jenkins doing a
13:15great job
13:16talk about gravity
13:17look how much
13:18people he got
13:18on that one
13:19he finds his man
13:20green

13:21three
13:22no hesitation
13:24big shot for him
13:25he's been shooting
13:25the ball well of late
13:26and it shows
13:26in his confidence
13:28and green
13:28is a regular
13:29rotation guy
13:30but for other guys
13:31who were missing
13:32shots that we saw
13:33in the first half
13:34is it almost
13:35freeing Austin
13:36knowing that
13:37you're going to get
13:37another opportunity
13:38they need you
13:38in this ball game
13:39you're not going to
13:40miss a couple of shots
13:40and then not see the
13:41floor the rest of the night
13:42oh 100%
13:43this is where it happens
13:44it's not going to
13:44happen in a normal game
13:45when they have
13:46everyone else playing
13:47usually these guys
13:48if they get in the game
13:49you know
13:50one miss

13:52it's just the way it works
13:53in a competitive
13:54competitive climate
13:55like the NBA
13:56Mitchell with the steal
13:58Mitchell laying it home
14:00he shot through that
14:02passing lane
14:03like he was shot
14:04of a cannon
14:05that was so good
14:06from AJ Mitchell
14:07the anticipation
14:07and how about the finish
14:11Jenkins fires

14:32Thompson

15:19animated
15:20you know
15:20he kind of
15:20talked about
15:21the lack of
15:22discipline
15:22going for shot
15:23takes
15:23giving up
15:24open jumpers
15:24a back cut
15:26defensively
15:26certainly
15:26he addressed
15:27some of the
15:28issues
15:28the Thunder
15:28have had
15:29to start
15:29this third
15:30quarter
15:30and then
15:30Albus Caruso
15:31always vocal
15:32in these huddles
15:33he talked about
15:34getting to the
15:34second and third
15:35side of action
15:36but here in Detroit
15:37they're just
15:38giving up nothing
15:39this Detroit
15:40defense
15:42has been solid
15:43even without
15:44so many key players
15:45they're finding a way
15:46to be disruptive
15:47Austin
15:48that's what they're doing
15:49that's what you have to do
15:50continue to jug up the game
15:52great possession
15:53there again
15:54by Harder
15:541.4
15:56Holmgren
15:56can't get it off

15:58before the shot clock
15:59expired to the Pistons
16:01Jenkins the other way
16:02what!

16:10SGA
16:11down the lane
16:12got the finish
16:14man that's such a tough finish
16:15he makes that play
16:16look so easy
16:17Robbie
16:17just de-selling like that
16:19and going off the off leg
16:20with the left
16:21you have to be so strong
16:23to be able to be going
16:24that speed
16:25put the brakes on
16:26and then still find a way
16:27to finish
16:30Holmgren
16:31may have changed the momentum
16:32here in the period
16:33offensive foul
16:34on Asar Thompson

16:41he's just kind of rolling him out there
16:43gotta be set on those dribble handoffs
16:46Chet Holmgren
16:47what a sequence this was here
16:49Jenkins thinks he's got a layup
16:51Chet Holmgren just catches that thing
16:54starts the break
16:55and SGA
16:56going the other way

17:45but we've had
17:45a competitive showdown
17:46Detroit
17:47putting up a fight
17:48Austin Rivers
17:49on the bench
17:50covering the Pistons
17:51for that last timeout
17:53he called just to get at the ref
17:55a little bit
17:55but he saw something
17:56bigger staff was not happy
17:58but in the huddle
17:59players just keep reiterating
18:01trust
18:01drive
18:01kick

18:03this is a free game for them
18:05go out there and have fun
18:06this is Javonte Green
18:08he's having a ball
18:09look at Green
18:09Green out here
18:10looking like Ray Thompson
18:13it's amazing what an opportunity
18:15in Green Light does
18:16and that's what I wanted to
18:17really hope
18:18you know
18:18Arnon
18:18you know
18:19about the Florida game
18:20when we're talking
18:21what this game does
18:22for certain players
18:2416 points for Green
18:25SGA surrounded by three jerseys
18:27good ball move
18:28but Wiggins
18:29in the corners
18:30Robbie
18:31they just casually bring
18:32Wiggins off the bench
18:33he's just ready to go
18:35and he can get buckets
18:36he's done it for a long time
18:37in this league
18:39Wiggins plays what
18:4025 minutes a game
18:41on probably
18:4299% of the NBA
18:43that is
18:45Paul Reed
18:46colliding with Chet Holmgren
18:48who picks up the foul
18:52with so much attention there
18:54you've got three defenders
18:55surrounding
18:56Shea Gilgis Alexander
18:58and you got Wiggins
18:59kind of directing traffic
19:00he's kind of saying
19:01make the hockey assist
19:03SGA willing
19:04extra pass
19:05that gets cast out
19:07from the corner
19:07he knew Shea was looking at him
19:09like let me get this assist
19:11he's like brother
19:11just passing the door
19:13he's got a better angle
19:14man
19:14you can get the next one
19:17and an unselfish play
19:18there by Shea
19:20Paul Reed missing
19:21on the first free throw
19:22Austin he missed
19:23mentioned all the easy looks
19:26Detroit missed
19:27in the first half
19:27they're 6 for 7
19:29from the floor
19:30so far in this third quarter
19:31definitely coming out
19:33with a punch
19:34back
19:35backdooring
19:36getting to the baskets
19:37making some free throws
19:38they missed some
19:38in the first half as well
19:39so some of these easy looks
19:40that they dropped
19:42they've now made it
19:43it's a game
19:43and they're not going to go anywhere
19:44this is part of their identity
19:46we know this
19:46they're going to play harder
19:47through the whistle
19:49Wiggins
19:51that time can't hit
19:52Reed smashes it away
19:54from Holmgren
19:55and a foul is called
19:57if it's on Holmgren
19:59it's going to be his third
20:02it's a big boy rebound here
20:04by Paul Reed
20:05bring that thing down
20:07yeah they did get Chet Holmgren
20:09there Mike
20:10this is third
20:1113th foul
20:12on the Thunder
20:16Holmgren will take a seat
20:17and Jalen Williams
20:18we'll check in
20:22they will had seven rebounds
20:24in that first half
20:26couldn't hit a shot
20:27though
20:270-4 from the floor
20:280-3 from downtown
20:32Thunder by Fultz
20:34nice pocket pass
20:36Reed
20:37lost it off his face
20:39and out of bounds
20:40yes he did
20:41and he might have had something there too
20:42he was working on a nice little Euro sidestep
20:45great pick and roll pass there by Herter too
20:48he's been diving up all game
20:51F-D-A foul
20:53see that's what I'm talking about right there
20:55I mean just get to the body Austin
20:56just understands the rules
20:59see look
21:00he was
21:03hands by Jalen Williams
21:04before it went off the ball
21:07Robbie I mean what do you do about this
21:09well and you do get Paul Reed there reaching and getting him on the arm too
21:14and that's where you you've got to be straight up
21:21Sunday night baseball is on Peacock this week Alec Burleson and the Cardinals are heading to Detroit to take on
21:27Riley Green and the Tigers
21:29it's an interleague clash in the Motor City on Sunday Night Baseball live on Peacock
21:36I will be played baseball back in the day guys
21:39until my sophomore year of high school yes
21:42oh
21:42high school
21:44Austin no I still don't really understand how
21:46oh wow okay
21:48alright
21:50I'm a one sport guy you know
21:52do you play anything else
21:54I tried out for football for 30 minutes
21:56it's actually a true story I quit mid-triop
21:58mid-triop
21:59okay
22:00it worked out for you
22:02and you don't play football in Florida
22:04you either do it or you don't
22:06LeVert got the bounce
22:09by the way SGA 20 points off that last made free throw
22:14136 consecutive games
22:15getting to at least 20 extending his own NBA record
22:20Wiggins once again
22:22knocks down the tray
22:24and we talked a lot about gravity
22:26SGA the way he drags that thing out
22:29just keeps that second defender with him
22:32never lets the ball get square and it's the extra pass once again
22:35then finds Aaron Wiggins in the corner
22:39three
22:40will take a long two and hits
22:43he's knocked down a couple you can't give him that much space
22:45Jalen Williams was concerned about that cut to the rim
22:48so he just backed off at Austin
22:50and Paul Reed made him pay for it
22:53he's got kind of a never let him know your next move kind of jumper
22:57here's SGA
22:58turn around
22:59that was filthy
23:03not much you can do about that
23:04Mitchell fouling Jenkins as he brought it up the floor
23:07this is going to be the fourth team foul
23:09on the Thunder
23:10and Ron Holland is a terrific defender
23:14I mean this is just a big time shot of creating space fading away
23:19and then you drag this thing out
23:21Aaron Wiggins going to switch side to the floor
23:23but look at where SGA is getting to
23:25he's getting to that left lane line
23:27extra pass and Aaron Wiggins having an impact here in this third quarter
23:31two threes for Wiggins here in the third
23:35he has six points
23:39Thunder by seven
23:41Lavert
23:42lost it up to Smith
23:44hit the backboard
23:45out of bounds
23:46last touched
23:47I don't think anybody was expected that one
23:50he left his feet there and was looking for anything
23:55fortunate
23:56that it's all for Williams and out of bounds
23:58I think it's important to know
24:01Detroit's got to just continue to finish quarters
24:03they've done a great job
24:04inserting themselves in this game
24:06in the beginning
24:06you want to finish strong here
24:08don't let the
24:09Shea Alexander tough baskets deter you
24:11and let the Thunder go in a run
24:16officials may be looking at the clock here
24:2414
24:26on the shot clock for Detroit
24:27under five to play in the third
24:30inbound to Holland
24:33Lavert
24:34around the Smith screen
24:36back to Smith
24:37Smith
24:37in the chest of Williams
24:39put it up and in
24:40a great finish due to contact
24:42Williams did a great job going vertical
24:44but Smith just put his shoulder in there to create that space
24:47good finish
24:48first field goal for Toluse Smith
24:51FTA
24:53through the defense
24:54and he hits
24:55even when he's not in control
24:58he's in control
24:58his footwork is just absurd
25:0224 for Shea Gillesis Alexander and that's the 15th foul on the Thunder
25:07which puts the Pistons in the bonus for the final 427 of the period
25:13he does kind of lose control of the ball but then gathers it up
25:17just has the footwork to split right through that second defender and Kevin Hurd
25:23you talked about his balance earlier in the strength he must have I mean it's it's impressive
25:27it seems like even when tough physical defenders try to knock him off his spot or mess with his dribble
25:32he just somehow gets to where he wants to
25:35the good ones you can't speed up
25:39that's so true
25:40and he is elite in that regard
25:43just going back to the 136 consecutive game scoring 20
25:47it's just remarkable because he said
25:50he is he's the game plan
25:52he's the defensive game plan for every team he faces
25:56and he still casually gets 20
25:58easy to
26:01he
26:03in the third quarter
26:05has that extra gear
26:06it's like the half hits
26:08and then it's the third quarter
26:09and SGA just
26:11he turns it on
26:12sometimes you don't even realize how much he has
26:14I mean I was
26:15I look up I'm thinking he's having you know
26:17a slow night
26:18well Austin I thought that last time about the Knicks
26:20you look at the box score
26:22he had 30
26:23yeah
26:23just
26:25score that thing man
26:26easy
26:26or you gotta say like Canadian easy
26:28you
26:31this is McCain
26:33rises over Smith
26:34and hits
26:36he got that down
26:37that little mini when he stops on the dime
26:39white paint and nails and all
26:41so fuck it
26:44LeVert's good
26:45and they keep responding though
26:47Detroit just showing fight and resolve
26:49they've been doing it all year
26:50they're doing it tonight here in OKC
26:52no Kate Cunningham
26:53no Jalen Duren
26:54no Tobias Harris
26:56Isaiah Stewart or Duncan Robinson
26:58they trill by four
26:59what a lot
27:00what a lot
27:01what a lot
27:02what a lot
27:02what a lot
27:03what a lot
27:04LeVert
27:05what a lot
27:08what a lot
27:21just never quit on that play
27:23he goes down
27:24gets right back up
27:26gets a fingertip
27:27Aaron Wiggins having a big third quarter
27:29for the Thunder
27:33Sasser
27:34skip pass to LeVert
27:36lines up a tray
27:37off the back iron
27:39SGA the ball
27:51he is eight for ten
27:53at the free throw line tonight
27:56great activity with Smith
27:57not to let this play go
27:58a lot of bigs just would have let that happen
28:02he also gets a fingertip on it
28:05Aaron Wiggins does the rest
28:07Oklahoma City needed a bit of a spark here in the third
28:10Wiggins has provided just that
28:18I love the way SGA just threw that thing out there
28:21chased it down
28:23and that double pump there LeVert then gets him on the right arm
28:26it's just you you've talked about it a lot often
28:29he just knows
28:30how to create contact and get to this place
28:33and he's one of the best at that the league
28:34he comes off those pick and roll so low
28:37and throws the ball out in front
28:39he just has the ball on a string
28:41and like you said Robb
28:43he's just always in control man
28:44he's impressive to watch
28:46when you watch the person you realize
28:47the pre-throw merchant stuff is all BS
28:50Holland with a beautiful finish
28:53Piston still within six
28:56SGA with 26 points
28:59he scored 10 here in the third alone
29:03matched up with Holland
29:07the back down poke away
29:09Holland nearly had the cookies
29:20Holland is just matching him step for step
29:23Holland top five in the league
29:25and individual defensive rating
29:27did everything right there on that play
29:29just couldn't close it out
29:36McCain pull up Trey
29:38no good
29:39and Holland the board
29:40fitting too he deserved that rebound after that stop
29:44Holland attack mode
29:46and Jay Will so good
29:49had drawing charges got Holland that time
29:52yeah he was waiting for him that time
29:54he was ready and waiting
29:57he was ready and waiting
29:58it was well done
29:59so that's real
30:01feed support
30:0611 turnovers for the Pistons
30:08SGA
30:09and an offensive foul
30:12get him for the hook
30:13get him for the hook
30:19let's see
30:20right here let's see
30:23oh yeah
30:24I mean it's minor
30:26but
30:29somebody go his way
30:30it's nice to
30:32return the favor
30:32appreciate you Scott Foster
30:34it was brief
30:35he did do it
30:37he did a good job of getting off
30:38some of those guys
30:39they'll just stay with it
30:40it's an auto foul
30:42look at Caruso
30:43look at Caruso
30:44all over Levert
30:46Sasser with the elbow
30:48jumper no good
30:49battle for the board
30:50Williams comes out of there with it
30:52and that whole play was blown up
30:54Caruso was able to just continually
30:58SGA toss it up
31:00Wiggins throwing it down
31:02and after the defensive stop off
31:04and you were talking about Caruso
31:06blowing up the play
31:07he sneaks in a ball screen there
31:09Detroit's behind the play
31:10they throw it up
31:11and throw it down
31:12no that's a heads up play
31:13he didn't get caught up
31:14in his defensive stop
31:15what does he do?
31:15he gets hauling right off of him
31:18and Caruso picks up a foul
31:19that time
31:20that'll put Marcus Sasser
31:21on the free throw line
31:23with 119 to go in the third
31:27Caruso's definitely just had an imprint
31:29the last minute or two
31:30just with his physicality on defense
31:32leading to good offense
31:35he's only played 12 minutes
31:36that's a great point Robbie
31:37that that little pick
31:38really great
31:3912 minutes
31:40wow
31:4012 minutes
31:42well listen those last couple
31:43minutes have been impactful
31:47another missed free throw
31:48the Pistons are shooting 42%
31:51from the free throw line
31:52as we take a look
31:53at the upcoming national TV schedule
31:55a couple good ones tomorrow
31:56on NBC and Peacock
31:57Knicks Rockets
31:59and Blazers Clippers
32:01those two teams battling for position
32:03in the play-in
32:03Wednesday on ESPN
32:05Celtics Heat
32:06Spurs Warriors
32:07for more on these games
32:08go to NBA.com or visit
32:10the NBA app
32:11both free throws missed by Sasser
32:14they are 6 for 15 at the line
32:18it's hurting them too
32:19I mean it's
32:20yes
32:22the trail by 8
32:24they missed 9 free throws
32:25that's an offensive foul
32:27on the Thunder
32:31Holland's having an impact
32:32you can see OKC's
32:33going out of their way
32:34to screen
32:35push shoved
32:36and try to get him off
32:38I mean watch Jalen Williams
32:39right here just a little bit extra
32:40that's clearly a moving screen
32:42and good sell there as well
32:43by Holland
32:464 fouls
32:46on Jalen Williams
32:48people might look at the scorecard
32:50and say well look
32:50Shea's got a lot of points
32:52he's not doing anything
32:53these guys are going to score
32:54regardless
32:55it's about how difficult
32:56can you make it for him
32:57and he's doing a good job right now
32:58Sasser
32:59good on a tray
33:02that's crept up for OKC
33:04no Isaiah Hartenstein
33:06they've got a rebound collectively
33:08Chet Holmgren on the bench
33:09in foul trouble
33:10that's been certainly something
33:12that's hurt them all game long
33:15Kildas Alexander
33:17blocked by Levert
33:19Sasser
33:20nearly lost the handle
33:22gave it up to Levert
33:23Levert back to pass
33:25can't hit the lane
33:27about a second difference
33:28between the shot game block
33:34a beautiful move by Levert
33:36just couldn't finish
33:38SGA with the rock
33:39he has 26
33:41and he's pushed
33:42by Holland
33:43they had a foul to give
33:44and he earned that foul to give
33:48he's yelling at the ref right now
33:49I think that's not a basketball play
33:57it'll be a side out
33:59ten seconds
34:00on the game clock
34:01shot clock is off
34:02fourth foul
34:03on Holland
34:05I would like an ISO
34:06just these two up top
34:07just to end the corner
34:09he switched off of him
34:12you want the grudge
34:15I like the fireworks
34:16I like the fireworks
34:16I'm an instigator
34:17Asura Thompson has the assignment
34:19on SGA
34:20right elbow
34:21am I allowed to start talking trash
34:22or
34:23I got to do what you want
34:28SGA
34:28don't tell me something like that
34:30right
34:31here's Joe
34:33blocked by Thompson
34:34and the third quarter
34:36is in the books
34:38for President 74
34:39and there's under 7
34:41Pistons trailed by 10 at halftime
34:44they trailed by 5
34:45as we head to the 4th
34:47you're watching Peacock
34:48NBA Monday
34:49committed by Xfinity
34:53you told me at the half
34:54you felt like the offense
34:55got a little sticky
34:56in the second quarter
34:57how would you assess it
34:58the third?
34:59about the same
34:59I think some of it's their physicality
35:01they do a great job
35:02but we got to be a little more forceful
35:03we got to get off a little earlier
35:04Detroit a team that just won't go away
35:06how do you put them away in the fourth?
35:08just stay with the game
35:08keep working the game
35:09thanks coach
35:10good luck
35:12five point ball game
35:13as we head to the fourth
35:16the Thunder 52-3 this season
35:18when leading
35:19after three quarters
35:21and if you're a Pistons fan
35:22you've got to be happy
35:23they're hanging around
35:25this is Joe
35:27in the corner
35:29he's been quiet
35:30but that's a loud start
35:31to the fourth
35:32Isaiah Joe
35:33just a model of consistency
35:35shooting the ball
35:36the last three or four seasons
35:37and ball screen comes off

36:11good to great shots
36:12no questions
36:13just every time
36:14if someone's more open
36:15they make the right play
36:16defender goes down there
36:17often and it's making the extra pass
36:19and there's a start Thompson
36:20again knocking down that
36:21mid-range shot
36:26and the way he's able to just move his feet
36:29with high hands
36:30both of these teams
36:31one and two in defense
36:32we're seeing it tonight
36:33Holmgren

36:36got into Reid
36:37who blocked the initial attempt
36:39Holmgren missed the second try
36:41great defense
36:42pass up ahead
36:43Holmgren with the interception
36:45and the save to Caruso
36:48what a play
36:49to bottom
36:51that decision
36:52cannot be made
36:53by Davis Jenkins there
36:55that's got to be solid
36:56instead of the turnover
36:57a run out
36:59and Isaiah Joe
37:00has come alive here
37:01with two quick threes
37:03right idea
37:04but throwing a
37:05throw ahead pass over Chet
37:07I don't know if Brady could do that
37:12handoff to Herter
37:13Herter
37:14pocket pass
37:15Reid
37:16down the lane for two
37:17I'm looking for that

37:20on the road
37:21you're going to have to earn it
37:21you got to knock out the champ

37:27Holmgren lost the handle
37:30Thompson

37:35Jenkins
37:36won't take the shot
37:37extra pass
37:38Lavert
37:39good
37:40from deep
37:41and Dagnall
37:42needs time
37:43a little bit of good
37:44the great
37:45of their own
37:46Pistons on the attack
37:48getting stops
37:49driving
37:50kicking
37:50moving the ball
37:51they're staying around
37:52hanging around
37:53right here
37:54seems like he had nowhere to go
37:56but what does Jenkins do
37:57he stays patient
37:58finds Herter
37:59who finds Lavert
38:00who finds all net
38:02Pistons on the move
38:03he's going to go
38:04he's going to go
38:05he's going to go
38:06he's going to go

38:28trying to destroy
38:30OKC's hopes
38:31had a number one seed
38:32Burr's got a victory tonight
38:35OKC's lead over the Spurs
38:36is just down to two games
38:39and they're trying to hold off
38:40the Pistons here
38:42off the miss
38:43Thompson will bring it up
38:47Detroit has never led tonight
38:543 to a cutting Herter
38:56outside Lavert
38:58and we have an offensive foul
39:02as Caruso
39:04he's called for the
39:05his help to the floor
39:08definitely both collided
39:09they're both kind of
39:11limping along here
39:13oh yeah
39:14just a blind hit
39:19Caruso will feel that
39:20when he wakes up tomorrow
39:21see but why is that on
39:24why is it just an offensive
39:25foul
39:25I mean he doesn't have the
39:26right to cut without getting
39:27run into
39:28why does that automatically go
39:29to Caruso
39:30instead of just incidental
39:32contact
39:32yeah I mean they're both
39:33running without looking
39:34and the offensive player I
39:36thought has the right to move
39:37see Thompson talking to the
39:38second row of the coaching
39:39staff who's got the iPad
39:40like why are we not
39:41challenging that call
